Pre-Game Talk: Winter Classic

[Alex514]

its Gally time!

Happy he's back.

 

[Lafleurs Guy]

Therrien is a players coach not a tyrannical bossman as some here try to impose on him, minus the Fedora he reminds this oldtime Hab fan of legendary Player/Coach Toe Blake, a hardnosed, earn your keep, put the team first type of leader, just sayin!!!...

Therrien is about the furthest thing from a "players coach" that you can get.

All setup with my Nescafe's Stephane Richer coffee mug to watch #44 blast one in.

How jealous are you Lafleur's Guy?

Nice!

I've got my Rocket Richard hoodie to keep me company for this one. I've worn it almost every day since I got it. It was put in the wash yesterday so it's all ready for some New Years parties!

 

[Natey]

Absolutely ****ing pathetic that Andrighetto is out.

**** off Therrien. Can't wait until you're fired you piece of crap.

Keep scoring one ****ing goal you overpaid monkey-faced clown.

EDIT: My god. Emelin? WHY? Absolute slap in the face to Pateryn and Tinordi to let Barberio play. Pateryn is a top-5 defenseman on this team, and it's not even close.

Andrighetto got sent down due to contract limit I believe, nothing to do with MT.

Send down someone else. Trade someone. I don't give a ****.

I'm sick of not putting our best foot forward and I'm sick of trying to win games with half a HC Davos roster.

 

[CrazyShea]

Am I the only one that find it weird both goalies have the Patriots on their helmet? I know it's being held in a football stadium, but I thought the point of these games (besides huge cash grab) was to celebrate the history of hockey not football? Both teams have a huge hockey history to celebrate just seems weird to me not to put previous legends on the mask instead of football cheaters I mean players .

Not gonna trade someone on NYE. Poor image and you need a partner.

Only choice was to send barberio down but they seem to be trying him up. Perhaps have intent to trade Emelin or Tinordi. So if people want change it comes with evaluating what you have first.

 

[Hoople]

Bold prediction.

DD scores a goal.

PK scores two goals and fights McQuaid.

Habs win, Therrien excoriated and vilified for ice time issues.

 

[G0bias]

I almost...almost... wanted MT to keep DD-Weise on the top line just so the embarassment could be all the more hilarious.

Atleast it's semi-watchable now. Although Ghetto should be in this lineup.

 

[Wats]

Bold prediction.

DD scores a goal.

PK scores two goals and fights McQuaid.

Habs win, Therrien excoriated and vilified for ice time issues.

Don't forget people calling Subban overpaid and he should be traded for some sweet capspace.

 

[Dagistitsyn]

Bold prediction.

DD scores a goal.

PK scores two goals and fights McQuaid.

That wouldn't end well

Habs win it by a toenail.

 

[S Bah]

Play McCarron,Tinordi,DLR,Pateryn,Emelin.

It would be nice to have that size advantage, playing the Bruins, one never knows what might happen.

Gallagher will give the Habs a serious boost.

I guess Daniel Carr has a more complete game. I wonder how long Carr stays up...

Carr has certainly played well enough to earn some more NHL icetime.

Habs win it by a toenail.

Yeah an eight inch toenail to hang those extra two goals on, who needs horseshoes, when Condon does his best Carey Price impersonation, the Bruins will be in awe!!!...

 

[void]

I think Subban is going to have a massive game. Wouldn't be surprised to see him score a couple of goals.

Habs are obviously huge underdogs going into tomorrow but they usually perform well in those situations. I expect them to win.

It'd be weird if PK had a couple of goals. It's not like he hasn't been trying. He has 10000 missed shots.

 

[M.C.G. 31]

Subban is bound to explode soon. He has 106 shots, 27th in the league, but only 1 goal. He's literally shooting at less than 1%. His career SH% before this season was 6.6%.

Of course, I'd rather he hold off on the incoming explosion until Therrien is canned.

Getting some traffic in front of the net would help.

Not if he keeps aiming for their heads

 

[Team_Spirit]

Road to the winter classic is soooo bad

Habs keep losing. Patches tell them to play with '****ing pride' LOL

The Tokarski/DSP/Beaulieu/Gallagher crew is awkward and boring as ****.

MT lack of tactical input is on display for all to see, what a bad coach.

At least PK and Weise are interesting.

 

[M.C.G. 31]

Getting some traffic in front of the net would help.

When Boucher arrives.

 

[Habs13]

Condon. Tokarski. Scrivens. Do we really need all three??

Barberio...

 

[Stopsight]

Why is Torey Krug's dog gluten free?

 

[Habs4ev*]

going out on a limb here (not really) we will get shut out

 

[MarkovsKnee]

With Gally back, you've got to think MT goes back to the initial lines that began the season with Carr replacing Semin.

Patches - Pleks - Gally
Eller - Chucky - Carr
Flash - DD - Weise
Flynn - Mitchell - DSP

Byron sits as the 13th forward

It puts everyone back in their proper roles.

EDIT: My god. **2**Emelin? WHY? Absolute slap in the face to Pateryn and Tinordi to let Barberio play. Pateryn is a top-5 defenseman on this team, and it's not even close.

**1** Instead of who exactly? Carr earned a chance to fill in as the heavy worker for the 2nd line. Unless you prefer Ghetto fill in on the 4th line.

**2**Well whether it's Emelin, Pateryn, or Tinordi in makes little difference as they are cut from the same mold. So you want to ***** about MTL scoring one goal a game but you would rather have 2 non-puck movers in the 3rd pairing?
